This had its cute moments. I like instalove, but the (short) third act breakup, Tyler Perry-ish baby daddy storyline, and romanticization of Sincere’s mommy issues irked me. In some ways, this lowkey reminded me of Luca by Grey Huffington.

Sincere and Honesty!!!

Honesty is a masseuse who was devastated by her last relationship. The man she thought loved her abandoned her in her time of need. Sincere is living his life in the streets and has a reputation that causes fear in most people. He is trying to make sure his mother is straight but is still haunted by the difficult upbringing she put him through. Honesty meets Sincere when he pays an extravagant amount of money for her to come to his home for a massage. Spending time together, they end up falling for each other. I was glad that falling in love with Honesty made Sincere a changed man. It made me happy that they were able to love each other and heal each other all at the same time. Just when life is going well for both of them, Honesty's ex, Grey, reappears wreaking havoc in her life and Sincere goes through the worst devastation in his life. I didn't feel sorry for the Grey once Sincere caught him at Honesty's job acting the crazy. He got what he deserved. I loved the way that Sincere treated Honesty's twins which was an extension of the way he loved Honesty. I loved this story of love and healing. Great story that you won't be able to put down.

So good!

This was a really good read. Honesty was hurt by her last relationship and had given up on dating and Sincere was so caught up in the streets that settling down was the last thing on his mind but when they met, the chemistry was off the charts. I love how Sincere changed for Honesty and showed his affection and love for her and let his guard down. Their love is one that people dream of. Mya definitely did her thing with this one. I definitely recommend this one. You won't regret it!
